Mobile on-site welding
Fully equipped truck brought to your property, farm or job site for repairs that cannot be carried into a shop.
Welder — Milton
Railings, gates, structural steel and on-site repairs, CWB certified. Ferrous Welding will bring the shop to you and quote the job before striking an arc.
Straight answers, tidy work and no surprises — across Milton and the surrounding area.
Fully equipped truck brought to your property, farm or job site for repairs that cannot be carried into a shop.
Beams, columns and lintels fabricated and welded to engineered drawings, with the weld procedure documented for the inspector.
Interior and exterior railings built to Building Code height and spacing, from plain steel to forged detail.
Driveway gates, side gates and window guards fabricated to your opening, hinged so they still swing true in five years.
Boat, trailer and food-grade stainless work TIG welded clean, where a mild-steel repair would just fail again.
Cracked frames, broken hitches, ramps, decks and axles repaired properly rather than built up with filler passes.
Buckets, augers, hoppers, guards and hard-facing repaired on site so equipment gets back to work the same day.
Brackets, frames, fire pits, stair stringers, shelving and one-off pieces built from a sketch or a measurement.
Ferrous Welding welds to code and cleans up after itself, which in this trade is half the battle. Mobile for anything that cannot move, shop work for what can, CWB certification for the jobs that legally require it, and a fire watch on every hot work job. Send a photo of what broke — we will tell you straight whether it is worth repairing.
Canadian Welding Bureau welder qualification, current and testable.
Division certification for structural steel welding — required for most engineered work.
Certificate of Qualification in welding with Red Seal endorsement.
Structural welding to code, with procedures documented for engineers and inspectors.
Fire extinguishers, blankets and a post-work fire watch on every indoor or roof job.
Certificates supplied before we roll onto your site.

No phone tag. Choose a time that suits you and it lands straight on the schedule.
Pick a time that works. Takes about 30 seconds.
Both. Anything bolted down, too big to move, or attached to a building we do on site from the truck — that is most railings, gates, structural work and equipment repair. Small pieces are cheaper to bring to the shop, where we have the bigger machines and better setup. Send a photo and we will tell you which is the cheaper route.
Aluminum and stainless, yes — TIG, and we prep and clean properly, which is most of the job on aluminum. Cast iron is case by case: some castings can be repaired with nickel rod and controlled preheat and cooling, others will simply crack again beside the weld. We will tell you honestly whether a repair is worth attempting before charging you for it.
If it carries a load — a beam replacing a wall, a balcony, a mezzanine, anything a permit covers — yes, and the fabricator needs the matching certification. We work from your engineer's drawings or can point you to one. For non-structural work like a railing or a gate, no drawings are needed, just measurements.
Typically one to three weeks from final measurement: a day or two to fabricate, time for finishing, then install. Measurement has to happen after the stairs and landings are final, since we build to the actual opening rather than the plan. Rush work is possible and we will tell you the cost rather than quietly missing the date.
Yes. Mild steel outdoors needs protection or it will bleed rust stains down whatever it is bolted to — we prime and paint, or send pieces for powder coating or hot-dip galvanizing depending on the exposure. Galvanizing costs more up front and is the right call for anything exposed to road salt.
With proper precautions, yes, and we take them: combustibles cleared or blanketed, a fire extinguisher at the work, sparks contained, and a fire watch kept for a period after we stop. Most fires from hot work start after the welder leaves, which is exactly why the fire watch is not optional for us.
